Grilled Hanger Steak with Homemade Chimichurri Sauce

I love this recipe because it is super simple and it tastes great. It is perfect for large parties in the summer. Because this meat is super rich it pairs well with all the fresh herbs. It is super light and pairs well some a super simple salad. This recipe requires no talent and skill set so therefore anyone could easily master this dish.

Cook time: 20 minutes

Prep time: 3 ½ hours largely unintended

For the Steak:

Ingredients

½ lemon zested and juiced

Olive oil

4 sprigs of fresh thyme chopped

½ teaspoon of crushed red pepper

2 tablespoons of fresh parsley

2 sprigs of fresh rosemary finely chopped

2 cloves of garlic smashed and finely chopped

3 hanger steaks

Directions

In a small bowl combine the lemon, pepper, herbs, garlic, and stir, add in the olive oil until it forms a loose paste.

Place the paste, and steak into a large ziplock bag and massage the meat for 3 minutes. Place in fridge and let marinate for 3 hours.

Once the meat has finished marinating heat up a grill or large cast-iron pan and coat lightly with olive oil. Bring a pan to a medium heat.

Grill or sear the steaks for 5-7 minutes on each side for a medium-well steak. Let rest for 8-10 minutes before slicing. Serve with the Chimichurri sauce.
